WASHINGTON, May 16 -- Rep. Kelly Armstrong, R-North Dakota, issued the following statement on his vote against the House Democrats' $3 trillion HEROES Act (H.R. 6800):
"The Democratic majority should be ashamed of this bill, but at least they're keeping their word. They promised they would use Americans' suffering as leverage. They called the pandemic an opportunity to enact their 'vision.' They gleefully cheered as industries vital to North Dakota collapsed.
